I had been to Britain a few times before moving here. It's quite a different experience being a tourist than actually living here. Some of the biggest immediate surprises were words.As they say, two countries divided by a common language.

This can be particularly embarrassing when, like a small child, you announce, "What's a quim?" You just don't know what things are going to mean here. I thought it was a fruit.
